The two people silently swam out of the White Rhinoceros Cave.
"On the monarch's first day of ascension, it's either the bones and blood of loyal ministers that are devoured or the fat and sweat of the people." Li Xizhou sighed lightly, "An inept ruler."
Pei Ye was still thinking about the Spirit Rhinoceros's shocked and aggrieved expression earlier, unable to hide his shame, and could only glare at the woman: "See, I told you, if you had written a few words on the horn earlier, none of this would have happened."
"Quick to vent anger on close ministers, a tyrant."
"Stop interrupting, I'm asking you why you didn't write it."
"And you're blaming me now. Who would have thought you'd eat it?" Li Xizhou looked at him with wide almond eyes, "That horn isn't like the scale demon, it doesn't just seep in on touch. I can't even imagine how you ate it—did you gnaw on it?"
Pei Ye was silent for a while: "Wasn't I in a rush to come find you and had no other choice."
